ZooMAb antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.

Each ZooMAb antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Specificity

Clone 1E13 is a ZooMAb rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects human Neurofilament L. It targets an epitope within the C-terminal half.

Immunogen

GST/His-tagged recombinant fragment corresponding to 150 amino acids from the C-terminal half of human Neurofilament L.

Application

Anti-Neurofilament L, clone 1E13 ZooMAb, Cat. No. ZRB1445, is a recombinant Rabbit monoclonal antibody that targets Neurofilament L and is tested in Affinity Binding Assay, Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin), and Western Blotting,
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected Neurofilament L in SH-SY5Y cells.

Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected Neurofilament L in human cerebral cortex tissue sections.

Affinity Binding Assay: A representative lot of this antibody bound human Neurofilament L with a KD of 1.3 x 10-7 in an affinity binding assay.

Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user

Target description

Neurofilament light polypeptide (UniProt: P07196; also known as NF-L, 68 kDa neurofilament protein, Neurofilament triplet L protein) is encoded by the NEFL (also known as NF68, NFL) gene (Gene ID: 4747) in human. Neurofilaments (∼ 10 nm in diameter) are intermediate filaments that serve as major elements of the cytoskeleton supporting the axon cytoplasm. They are the most abundant fibrillar components of the axon, being on average 3-10 times more frequent than axonal microtubules. They are built from three intertwined protofibrils, which are themselves composed of two tetrameric protofilament complexes of monomeric proteins. The neurofilament triplet proteins (68/70, 160, and 200 kDa) occur in both the central and peripheral nervous system and are usually neuron specific. The 68/70 kDa NF-L protein can self-assemble into a filamentous structure, however the 160 kDa NF-M and 200 kDa NF-H proteins require the presence of the 68/70 kDa NF-L protein to co-assemble. NF-L is the most abundant of the three neurofilament proteins. Mutations in NEFL gene are known to cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 1F, a disorder of the peripheral nervous system characterized by progressive weakness and atrophy. This ZooMAb® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in lyophilized from PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

0.03 mg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
